By Maya Green
She was just a small kitten
Weak, dirty, and helpless
She was taken in, nonetheless
And raised and nurtured, love smitten
She brought joy to us
Her part of the bargain
Of giving back the best of herself
She is a soul, a soul from the Master
Tora, you are not just a cat
You are a companion
A messenger with a clear message
To help open up our eyes
There is a message everywhere you look
But you must really want to see it
First, with your heart of hearts
Then, perchance with the miracle of sight
